Graduate students
Graduate training and education is a crucial aspect of our laboratory culture. Here are our current students:
- Joanne Lau (Doctoral Student, Micro Program) is currently identifying regions of ClpXP regulators critical for their function.
- Jing Liu (Doctoral Student, MCB) is studying how DnaA, the initiator of DNA replication is degraded.
- Robert Vass (Doctoral Student, MCB) is discovering how ClpXP processes essential replication factors.
- Kamal Joshi (Doctoral Student, MCB) is defining how hierarchies of adaptors generate substrate specificity.
- Lisa Hernandez Alicea (Doctoral Student, MCB) is determining how ClpXP extracts membrane proteins.
Undergraduate students
Many of us gained our passion for science through undergraduate experiences, we are thrilled to host these students:
EXTRAS
- Laura I Francis (senior advisor) - provides needed guidance, insight, and general sanity.
